Just as Emmanuel had promised, early the next morning, Quintus arrived with a hundred elite members of the Blade Battalion to join Mackenzie. "Mackenzie, I'm here!" Quintus greeted her enthusiastically, moving in for a warm hug.

But seeing Rhett's stern gaze fixed on him, he chuckled awkwardly.

O "Mackenzie, from today onward, I'll be your knight in shining armor, My-Dear-Princess!" "Alright, I'll be counting on you then!" Mackenzie smiled, flashing him a radiant grin, far warmer than her usual reserved demeanor.

She knew deep down that Quintus had always truly loved her, and he was a man of good character. Since he still harbored feelings for her, she decided to maintain a friendly relationship with him.

Sure enough, just her smile left him flustered. “Mackenzie, you've changed!” he stammered.

"What? You don't like the new me?" she teased. “Is it because I lost my figure after having a baby? Or is it because I'm not as aloof anymore, and now you think I'm boring?" "No, no, not at all!" Quintus waved his hands frantically. "I'm not a glutton for punishment! Treatwell, really well!" Mackenzie laughed generously. "Have you guys eaten yet? How about I take you to a farm restaurant and treat you all to a meal?" "Really?" His eyes lit up with excitement. He immediately turned to his men and ordered, "The goddess has spoken-first, we feast, then we work!" "Hooray!" The members of the Blade Battalion cheered excitedly.

These guys hadn't originally cfrom the military; they had joined the Wolf Warrior Unit out of loyalty to Emmanuel. And now that Mackenzie was treating them so well, they couldn't be happier.

Mackenzie smiled again, her mood much lighter.

Behind her, Phett, arms crossed, watched the men who had once fought alongside him and couldn't help but smile too..

He knew he had made the right choice. Freedom was the only way to find true happiness, and these smiles were something he hadn't seen during his tin Dark Night Islands.

After their meal, Mackenzie returned to the Silvergate relief center.

This time, with such a formidable crew accompanying her, Anthony didn't dare act up. Instead, he politely explained the situation to her.

"Ms, Quillen, we had planned to use your donated supplies to make up for what was stolen during the looting. Now that you know about it, I won't hide anything from you. I just hope you'll show smercy and helptransport the remaining supplies to Riverhaven. Please, I'm begging you!" He clasped his hands together in a pleading gesture, genuinely asking for her help.

Anthony was visibly relieved. He immediately added, "Ms. Quillen, if you helpout this time, I'll definitely vote for you when the tcomes!" Mackenzie only nodded in acknowledgment before saying, "Send out the trasport team. We'll escort the supplies ourselves to ensure they reach Riverhoven safely "Got it!" Anthony agreed but still seemed a bit worried. "But we can't risk everything on this one trip. Right now, all we have are your donations. If we lose that, I won't be able to explain myself!* Mackenzie frowned, considering his concerns. "If we transport too little, the bandits might not bother with us. If that happens, we won't be able to help the disaster area at all. We need to take enough to lure them out.” 18:59 Sat, Nov
